"Sorry! The application TouchFLO has stopped..." - Hero, G2 Touch General

Hi all,
I have an issue on a nearly brand new Hero (Orange FR).
Each time I reach the weather page (the standard big one) the following message appears:
"Sorry! The application TouchFlo (process com.htc.launcher) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again".
I have to click on "Force close" to relaunch the touchFLO layer.
I reseted the phone: same issue.
I reinstalled the Orange ROM located on the HTC website (RUU_Herrange_UK_2.73.61.5_release_signed_NoDriver): same issue.
Any idea?
Thank you for your help.
Gilles

thats strange.
many people had this issue when there was a problem with PEEP not working correctly after some API changes from Twitter.
But then Peep was fixed and the error message went away.
So if you deactivate the weather widget you dont have any issues?

Thank you for your answer.
If I remove the HTC weather widget (the big one) from the page the TouchFLO doesn't crash anymore.
More weired, if, instead of the big weather widget, I install on the page four medium ones, the issue doesn't appear neither.
Therefore my conclusion is: I have a problem with the "full page" HTC weather widget.
To be more precise, the outage occurs when the widget starts to update the weather.
Very very strange...

Not sure if this will help, but probably worth a go. My Hero was crashing several times a day, I was missing calls because it would crash as soon as it prepared itself to recieve an incoming call. Texts would disappear into a black hole while typing them and receiving them. TouchFlo would close down for no reason and many other apps were crashing every time I used them.
The problem seems to be my SD card though, I've booted into Android System Recovery and chose the option "repair ext filesystems". It's not crashed since.

Gilles, I have the same issue. I think it appears the first time when i installed ans uninstalled the Pandahome app. I don't know if it can help !!

At first I tried a hard reset. Still the weather widget not working. Then I downloaded the official Rom from HTC and installed it. So, a clean machine, nothing extra installed. Still the weather widget not working and TouchFlo stopping????

could be a h/w problem with the radio or somthing simlar

I've had problems with Open Home crashing on me and I was wondering if it had anything to do with the Weather Widget or similar app.
I have also taken out Panda Home now and may just try a different clock too and see how it goes on Open Home.
My HTC Sense has crashed today which never did, so must be something to do with a replacement home and maybe another app.

Installed rhe newest radio but the problem is still there. Very strange is when I turn of the automatic location function and put in another city it works?? Than putting in my hometown, 's-Hertogenbosch in the Netherlands, is also works. But when I put on the automatic location and it locates s'-Hertogenbosch on the homescreen, ans I go to the weatherwidget it crashes again. So, is has to do something with the name of my hometown.

I'm suddenly having this same problem, on a non-rooted Hero.
I have some fundamental confusion because, based on a battery-life-extender sticky thread at AndroidForums, the information included that the default HTC SenseUI flipclock with weather was a battery drainer due to constant auto-refreshing of weather info. Their recommendation was to INSTEAD use an alternate FlipClock widget from Android Market ... one that I believe may have been created here at XDA -- because it had tons of customization for every aspect of the flip clock -- with about 25 different clock skins, and 15 or so weather icon skin-sets.
It had been working just beautifully for a week or so, and then I cannot recall what it is I did, but it was I believe, after installing a new app from Market that upon some eventual action, i got that selector pop-up that says "use Home, TouchFLO, or (something else)" and the checkoff box "always use this selection".
I don't recall what I pressed but ever since that I have had this problem.
I had, prior to this problem, saved off "Scene" settings which i hope will protect and restore my 7 screens to how I had them, because like everyone I spent a long time getting it like i liked it, having experiemnted with multiple apps and widgets to find my own ideal layout and selections of apps/widgets.
What troubleshooting steps can you recommend? thank you

TF3D Weather Not Loading

So I tried installing "WeatherDataBaseEditor" 1.1 and 1.2 and kept getting error messages. SO I deleted them and found another CAb file that did the same thing (sorry can't remeber the name of it and I can no longer seem to find it listed here).
Anyways, every time I edited a city with that program it came up with an error before completing the deletion (or edit). This seemed like a lot of hassle, so I decided to delete that app as well.
NOW, TF3D Weather doesn't work anymore. When I select the Weather tab, I get the following...
- "Tap Here to Launch TouchFlo", then "Launching TouchFlo 3D", then a second or two it goes to the Home page.
Any idea why this is happening??
And more importantly, how do I fix it to get my TF3D Weather to return???
Thanks

My Location/Weather problem in 6.5

I've just upgraded to the official 6.5 ROM.
If I select the Weather tab, after a moment's pause the screen changes to one just showing HTC in the centre, then returns to the Today screen.
If I click on My Location under the flippy clock, this seems to take me to the Weather tab again, and the same happens.
Under 6.1 I had added locations to the Weather app, following instructions found on the forum.
Can anyone please help me get the Weather functionality back?
Thanks!
Hi
can anyone try to explain me how this " my location thing " works?
One the home screen right under the clock I can see just "my location" text a thats it..I am unable to find any information on the internet.. Any time I try update it manualy from weather menu I get message about communication problem..But when I manualy added few other locations there is no problem at all..Just "my" location info is still empty..Does anybody know how to tell my bloody phone where am I ? I know it sounds funny but something is definetely wrong..Thanks for any answer..
Yeah and I am running stock version of HTC WM 6.5 recently downloaded from their site..
I am just wondering when they will fix all those problems with new ROM. Like crazy clock when locking my device or flashing light notifications..I would rather wait for new ROM few more days then have problems like this..

On your homescreen you can click the "My location" and from there select what location should be seen on the homescreen. Go to the weather tab first to add your city.
OMG that stupid I am ? Thanks very much m8 ..
I've got My Location set OK, but still can't get the Weather tab to function at all - I just get returned to the Today screen.
Hmm, maybe im doing something wrong. I cant get my location to update in the main weather tab but i can add citys as the other user said. However if i click the "my location" tab under the clock on the main screen, it takes me to the weather tab of my location which is blank as it wont update for some connection error but i cant see how i can make one of the other citys i have added to appear on my homescreen?
I couldn't get this to work either... but I've got it working now... for some reason nothing works until you go to weather tab --> menu --> settings and select " download weather automatically"
After that, if you select "my location" as your clock... it automatically updates to where you actually are... neat huh!

Still can't get Weather to work - if I go to the Weather tab I don't get a Menu option, I get a screen with HTC on the default background, options of Calendar and Contacts at the bottom, and just above these, on the right, a small picture of a generic 'computer' - as if to signify it's processing something.
Then, a few seconds later, I'm dumped back on the start screen.
Please can anyone suggest a solution? I did add cities to weather under 6.1 - could this be anything to do with it?
Thanks!

hmmm, sounds like manila/sense is actually crashing when you go to the weather tab, as the screen you describe just sounds like the blank today screen with no ui on top of it, then it is restarting tf3d and hence bringing you into home screen... odd
Unfortunately, trying to fix the problem I fear I've bricked the phone!
Thinking the issue was that I had edited the 2330fc3c_manila file (to add my location to the Weather cities) I searched for a 'virgin' copy, found what I thought would do the trick in a thread on this forum and installed it.
After this, and a reset, the phone wouldn't launch HTC Sense - the screen invited me to tap to launch it but wouldn't go further...so I tried to restore from a pre-6.5 backup.
Unless anyone knows a way of reviving it, the Topaz is on its way to the menders this afternoon!
I assume you did a hard reset and not just a soft reset?
Yep, tried that - it won't go past the initial screen.
Just reflash a rom. that should fix it

No lockscreen after installation of certain programms

Hi guys,
i hope im right here with that little problem.
Whenever i install a programm or tweak which changes something on htc sense, the windows lockscreen dissappears and im not able anymore to tap on emails in sense to get directly to outllok.
Ive reset my hd2 now several times, and everything works great again, but when i install just one of the following things, the lockscreen`s gone and the email problem occurs:
Vovichek_Jamrecords_20shcut_m2525.cab
Duttys Task Manager for Leo.cab
6.)Touch_X_1_percent_battery_LEO.cab
Any suggestions?
thanks

It's just coincidence that the lockscreen/email issue appears. It's a problem with the UI itself, as it will eventually happen if you don't install anything!
Just press start and then lock (bottom left softkey) and then they're back to working order again.
I imagine this will be fixed in a future HTC ROM release.

bad alignment in sense and other programs

hi everybody, i installed my mobiler (so i can control my hd2 from my pc) and since then my sense main screen 'moved up' (hard to explain..look at pics).
i can see in the bottom right the my mobiler icon..but even if i disable it and softreset..well the screen is still miss-aligned (the icon is not there anymore).
my guess is that even other programs that have this type of icon would cause the same thing..
anybody experienced this b4? any help
much appreciated
Yeah, MyMobiler shows down there but only when you have the standard wm 6.1 plugin home screen. It shouldn't appear there while sense is activated. I have it installed also and it doesn't show up. Try disabling sense and enable it back and see what happens.
yup..i already tried uninstalling..disabling and deleting reg and then restart phone and/or sense...it stays the same .. pls help...i dont wanna hard reset again...just got everything working as i wanted...
oh..and by the way, de unde ai gasit un hd2 in rom?
i had the same problem just after the install of e-Natives Showcase
i don't know if is this program to create the issue but just after i removed it the phone went back to normal.
Just a thought, but in
start - settings - all settings - today - items
is there anything more than just HTC sense ticked? Could be that it is trying to show the app, and then show the senseui which is then trying to stack.

A very happy HD2 - running CHT with one "app screen" might makes yours faster too

A very happy HD2 - running CHT with one "app screen" might makes yours faster too
As some of you know, I've had my HD2 3-4 weeks - and I've had my fair share of bugs, issues, etc. After being unable to fix my latest issues last week, I did a factory reset (on Thursday night) and spent an hour or so setting it up to the spec I wanted.
Since then, I've had no issues with speed or lag whatsoever. IMO this is down to me running CHT 1.8.5.1 with only one screen of apps (5x5), not two or three. Maybe only Cookie knows how much impact this might (or might not have) on your average phone, but for me it's made the whole thing as it should be. Previous to this, I was running 1.8.5.1 with two and three screens, and also the same with 1.7. But I had too many issues.
So I thought I'd publish here in case anyone (with CHT) is also getting fed up with these issues and wants to give this a try.
There's nothing else on the phone I'm running or doing differently.
BTW, I still have a couple of bugs:
1) On reboot (Sense restart etc) I get this error just after Today screen appears:
An unexpected error has occurred in CHT_Wall.exe ... select Quit and the restarted ... blah blah"
Haven't found a fix yet, but will keeping looking.
2) I can't stop the weather animations even though I've disabled it in B2BTweaks.
Not the end of the world though ...
CHT Wallpaer.exe error
> Press Menu>Select Wallpaper>Choose one of the wallpaper under Potrait
>Restart Sense which you must Edit in your Quicklink.
The Bug will occasionally be there once you unlock your phone unless the Cookie creator can fix it.
Try Soft Restart if still not working.This will help to generate the ability to move your finger to always touch your Htc Hd2..cheers!

Don't bother with BSB, it just doesn't work. Use CHT, there is a menu within John Molyneuxs CHTEditor to display switches on the home screen put one down, and use that.
